The ancestor of the Xia family smiled and said, "I have lived for such a long time, and some things can still be understood."

You should also know that in a cultivation family like ours, strength is the most important thing! Not only within the family, but even between the families is very fierce!

In the past few decades, the situation of our Xia family has not been very good, because of the shortage of cultivation resources, the strength of many young disciples within the family has improved slowly, and in the last few family ranking competitions, the results of our Xia family have become worse and worse.

The ranking obtained in the ranking competition determines the distribution of resources in the next ten years, and now that cultivation resources are so scarce, even if the ranking competition is only one place behind, it will affect our development in the next ten years.

The Xia family's ranking in these ranking competitions is getting worse and worse again and again, which has led to a shortage of our cultivation resources, and the lack of better cultivation conditions, our strength level will not go up, and this has become a vicious circle, the good ones will only be better, and the bad ones will only be worse.

If we don't find a way to change this situation, the Xia family will decline sooner or later! In the last ranking competition, we were in ninth place, but what about this time? I'm worried that this time we won't even be able to keep the ninth place!

Now the gap between the strength of our Xia family and the top five families is getting bigger and bigger, I used to think about being able to compete, but now let alone fighting, it would be very good to be able to keep the ranking!

Xia Zhenming, you are also a member of our Xia family, and you are also a member of our Xia family! As a disciple of a cultivation family, you should know how important it is to the improvement of martial arts cultivation!

Don't blame the family for snubbing you back then, this reality is so cruel, and your trip to Jiangzhou City, the harvest is not small, this is not a kind of success, some things are like this, there are gains and losses!

If you want others to look up to you, you have to have that ability! Now our Xia family is a little lonely, and the other big families look down on us, want to see our jokes, and want to see when our Xia family will fall out of the top ten families.

Over the years, everyone in our Xia family has been working hard to change all this, and everything we have done is just to make the family develop better, and you should be able to understand this. ”

Xia Zhenming was silent for a moment before he said: "Ancestor, I naturally know what you said! The Xia family is also my family no matter what, I don't have too much resentment towards the Xia family, if there is, I won't come back today." ”

The ancestor nodded with satisfaction: "That's right, after all, we are all a family, and it doesn't make any sense to hate each other so much! But Xia Zhenming, your life is good, you have raised such a good daughter, and you have found such a good son-in-law!

Your son-in-law is very good, he is already an alchemist at a young age! It seems that his cultivation level should not be low, why didn't you say it earlier, we wouldn't have been so rude just now!

After all, this was an internal meeting within the family, and it was inconvenient for him to intervene as an outsider just now! But since he was an alchemist, maybe we should also listen to his opinion on this matter?

Or I'll give you a list of the pills that the family needs, Xia Zhenming, can you see if you can ask him to help us refine more? ”

The head of the family also followed and persuaded: "Xia Zhenming, the ancestors have already spoken, what are you waiting for?"

The rest of the Xia family also discussed in a whisper, although they couldn't hear clearly, Xia Ke still felt the unkindness in their eyes.

Xia Ke understood why the ancestor of the Xia family suddenly said those words to her father, just now everyone in the Xia family was rude to Wang Guan and directly drove people out of the council hall, and now of course they are embarrassed to invite people back so directly.

These so-called big families, they like to do everything, they value their face more than anything else, and they are used to being high and thinking that they are superior, and now let them pull down their faces to do this kind of thing, of course they can't do it, they can say a few soft words, and let her father ask for this favor, which is already very rare for these people in the Xia family.

It is because of this that Xia Ke doesn't like this place even more, and he doesn't like the self-righteousness of these people.

Those people in the Xia family feel that they can't afford to lose face, but they don't take others seriously, if her father doesn't handle this matter, if she can't handle it, she will become a sinner of the Xia family?

Xia Ke was very unhappy in his heart, and said directly: "Dad, you know Wang Guan's temper, he won't give anyone face!"

"Heh!" The head of the Xia family laughed: "This young man has great ability and a bit of a big temper, this can be understood! But since he is already the son-in-law of our Xia family, how can he say that he is also half of the Xia family, and now that the family has something, does he want to ignore it?"

Xia Ke said coldly: "Family master, you know now that he is from the Xia family, but you didn't say that just now. ”

"Dad!" Xia Zhengang, the eldest son of the head of the Xia family, finally couldn't help it, and said, "Why are you telling him so much! Isn't he just a little alchemist?

Besides, haven't we already invited two alchemists from the Alchemist Guild to come over? There is one of them who is still an emperor-level alchemist, even in the Alchemist Guild, his status is extremely high!

With the help of these two people, do we still have to worry about buying pills? Although it is a little troublesome, the pills sold by the Alchemist Guild are more reliable than those alchemists who come from unknown sources, right?"

The head of the house frowned slightly and did not speak.

Old Ancestor said lightly: "It's not so easy to sign a long-term cooperation agreement with the Alchemist Guild! Why does the Alchemist Guild want to refine the pill for our Xia family?"

The head of the Xia family also nodded, although they invited someone from the Alchemist Guild to come over, they had never put forward any conditions, and it was for this reason that they considered.

Although the Xia family is a cultivator family in Southwest Province and a big family, this cultivation family in Southwest Province is not enough to see in front of the Alchemist Guild, and it is difficult to say whether the people of the Alchemist Guild will sell their face.

For so many years, haven't they sent someone to contact the Alchemist Guild? It is because the contact is not smooth that they are passive everywhere.

In terms of financial resources, they are far from being able to compare with those larger families, and they want to buy a large number of pills, for them, but the cost is huge, and they can't compete with others for financial resources, and they can't afford to fight.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have bothered so much, and specially invited Xia Zhenming back.
